Kullerbü Countdown Bags
Children look forward to one day of the year more than any other: their birthday. Days beforehand they already ask how many more sleeps there are until then. But they also eagerly anticipate other celebrations such as Easter, Christmas or the forthcoming family holiday. On New Year's Eve the little ones can hardly wait for midnight to arrive and for the fireworks to begin. But whatever the occasion – one thing is always the same: the time until it arrives seems to pass far too slowly for children. Countdown-Bags help: they shorten the waiting time in a playful and enjoyable way.
Required materials:
Paper lunch bags

There are many different ways to design the Kullerbü-Countdown-Bags creatively and to use them for various occasions. If the Countdown-Bags are used, for example, for Easter, Christmas, the Advent season, or a birthday, it is recommended to use the date templates. For the countdown to New Year's Eve, where the aim is mainly to stay awake, the time template can additionally be used. That way the little ones can, for example, open a bag at every full hour.
